Now here's a really fantastic contest to enter. Click here to enter.

***Countdown to Christmas Contest***

LDSWBR will hold a drawing on Christmas Day for a $25 eGift Card from Deseret Book, as well as a variety of books being offered by some of the LDS authors that will be featured on the blog. Simply post a thoughtful comment on the Countdown to Christmas author posts to enter. Here are the rules:

* LDSWBR reserves the right to decide what determines a "thoughtful" comment.

* Only one comment per person per "Countdown to Christmas" author post will be entered into the drawing. This allows the potential for 24 entries per person at the end of the contest. Feel free to comment more than once per post if you'd like, but only one comment will be accepted as an entry.

* Contest ends at 12:00 Midnight MST on December 24, 2009. Drawing winners will have until 12:00 Midnight MST on December 31, 2009 to claim their prize. After that time, another name will be drawn to receive the prize.

* Book prizes can only be shipped within the contiguous United States.

  1. You've got a real festive looking blog! That and your musical advent calendar really helps droppers-in get in the spirit. I've posted an easy, yummy Christmas candy on my blog at www.sezlizadair.blogspot.com

    Hope you'll drop by and try it.

    Merry Christmas!
